Morenova by Downtown Apartments Overview

Morenova by Downtown Apartments sits right on 17 Stanisława Lema, a street that feels like a quiet back alley of the old city yet is just a stone’s throw from the bustling Motława River. I remember stepping out of the lobby and hearing the faint murmur of a café on the corner of Stogi Street, the smell of fresh pierogi drifting in. It’s the kind of place where the city’s history whispers through the cracks of the old brick walls, and you can almost taste the salt from the harbor in the air. Honestly, the first thing that struck me was how the lobby lights mimic the soft glow of the old Gdańsk lanterns – a subtle nod to the past that feels oddly modern. I mean, you’re not in a typical hotel lobby; it’s more like a cozy apartment with a touch of luxury.

When you wander down from the building, you’ll find yourself on a street lined with a mix of historic timber houses and newer art galleries. There’s a little bistro called “Kawiarnia Księżyc” on the corner of Św. Marcin, famous for its oat milk latte that’s a must‑try if you’re into plant‑based coffee. A few blocks away, the Gdańsk Canal stretches out, and on a warm afternoon you can see locals strolling along the promenade, their laughter mingling with the distant bells of the St. Mary’s Church. I’ve been to this spot a handful of times, and the vibe is always relaxed – perfect for a leisurely walk after a day of sightseeing. If you’re looking for a night out, the area around the Old Town – especially the streets of Gdańsk’s Półwieś – is alive with bars that still feel like the neighborhood’s own hangouts.

Practical stuff? The check‑in is straightforward but the staff do a quick tour of the apartment, which feels like a home away from home. They’ll ask for your ID, and the keycard is surprisingly easy to use – no fumbling with old keys. Parking is a bit of a mixed bag; there’s a small paid garage a block away, but if you’re staying during the summer, the street can get pretty crowded. Noise-wise, the building’s soundproofing is decent – you’ll hear the city’s hum, but it’s not the kind of constant clatter that keeps you up. The apartment itself is spacious, with a kitchenette that has that slightly old‑school stainless steel finish that’s oddly charming. I’ve noticed the air conditioning works well during the hot August months, though the heating can be a bit sluggish in late November. All in all, if you’re looking for a place that feels like a local’s apartment with a touch of comfort, Morenova by Downtown Apartments is a solid pick. The 4‑star rating of 8.2 says it all – it’s not perfect, but it’s real, it’s warm, and it’s exactly the sort of place that makes you feel like you belong in Gdańsk.

    Polecam!!!

  • Piotr from Netherlands – 17 March 2025 (8/10)

    Duży taras

    What could be improved: Brak wielu potrzebnych rzeczy typu ręcznik papierowy, płyn do mycia naczyń, powinny być chociaż dwie kapsułki do prania, nieopróżniony odkurzacz, niewygodne łóżka, ktoś zajął miejsce parkingowe w podziemnym garażu.

  • Rokk from Estonia – 15 November 2024 (7/10)

    toad olid ilusasti sisustatud ja puhtad.

    What could be improved: toad olid külmad ja duššist tuli ainult kuuma vett.

  • Wioletta from Poland – 27 August 2024 (9/10)

    Czystość

  • Olena from Ukraine – 13 August 2024 (9/10)

    Bardzo podobały mi się apartamenty. Czyste, piękne apartamenty. Wygodny dla 5 osób j rodziny. W pobliżu znajduje się centrum handlowe oraz sklepy spożywcze.

    What could be improved: Minus, trudno było wejść za pomocą zamka szyfrowego. Udało się 10 razy. Nie mogli się dodzwonić do działu wsparcia, nie odbierali telefonu, choć w wiadomości było napisane, że są otwarci do 20:00.

  • Arnolda from United Kingdom – 7 August 2024 (9/10)

    Amazing and quiet place, everything was clean and nice.(Cups, plates, basic tableware, coffee machine.)

    What could be improved: We stayed for a week and nobody cleans the apartment. No floor mop was left, so there was no way to clean the floor, which was very unpleasant. We were 6 people, and unfortunately only 4 rolls of toilet paper were left. We had to buy kitchen paper towels, sugar, coffee, oil, toilet paper, washing powder, garbage bags and since it was not possible to use them, we left everything. Therefore, it is a shame that the owners do not prepare such things, because I think we were not the first to leave food and basic necessities.

  • Moczkowska from Poland – 30 July 2024 (9/10)

    Meeega apartament. Przewyższył nasze oczekiwania.

  • Katarzyna from Poland – 29 May 2024 (9/10)

    Bardzo ładne mieszkanie, czyste, ładne wysoki standard. W kuchni dostępne wszystko co potrzebne. Dostępne dwa miejsca parkingowe. Mila obsługa dostępna cały czas pod telefonem (dziękuję jeszcze raz za pomoc) myślę że jeszcze tu wrócę.

    What could be improved: Jedyny minus, to duże poduszki na których było ciężko spać.

  • Aleksandra from Poland – 9 May 2024 (9/10)

    Super urządzone i wyposażone mieszkanie. Zdjęcia nie oddają tego 🙂 jesteśmy bardzo zadowoleni. Dwa miejsca parkingowe były naszym głównym kryterium przy wyborze. Bezkontaktowe zameldowanie, czysto. Serdecznie polecam!

    What could be improved: Nie ma takiej rzeczy
